@someone: "Hi:
I placed one of PCs with XP in the back-room that is further away from 
Router/Modem Combo and most of time, ..... at the far right bottom, .... 
indicating,
'Signal is Low,' .... or the other time, 'No Signal.'
However, I can access any web-sites as fast as the other PC with XP which is 
sitting close to Modem/Router Combo. It says, .... 'Signal is Excellent'
If any of you could explain about it, I'd truly appreciate it.
Thanks, "

Two things.
-The signal strength display is often not very accurate and varies from one 
wireless program/adapter to another, even when they are the same distance 
from the Wifi.
-The further away you are, the weaker the signal.
Also, if you actually measured the speed of a download you'd then probably 
see a difference, if one signal was actually low.  It's hard to see on 
simply browsing web pages.
